Set-UP

 

 

GUIDE BAR AND DIAMOND CHAIN INSTALLATION

STEP 6

Install the bar clamp plate over the bar studs.

STEP 7

Install the side cover over the bar studs and install side cover nuts. Finger tighten only.

STEP 8

Tension the chain. Do not over tension the diamond chain. Loss of power will result. It is normal for the drivelinks to hang underneath the guide bar. The diamond chain should be snug but be able to be pulled around the guide bar by hand.

STEP 9

Lift up on the nose of the bar and firmly tighten the side cover nuts. To prevent chain tensioner breakage, be sure the side cover nuts are tightened to approximately 20 ft-lbs (27 Nm).
